Results & Photos of the Dublin City Marathon - Sun 27th Oct 2024

The Dublin marathon is always a special event as no other marathon in Ireland comes close to it in terms of size and atmosphere. In 2024, there were 17,747 finishers which was up 7.5% on the 16,510 in 2023.

I'll update the post with links to photos over the next day or two but in the meantime, here is the link to the results.

2024 Dublin Marathon Results

From a Cork point of view, there were some impressive results. Ryan Creech of Leevale AC was the second Irish athlete home to take a silver medal in the Irish national marathon championship.

Niamh Moore of Leevale AC ran a great race to finish in an impressive time of 2:45:20 and it was also here first marathon! Back in 2016, the qualifying standard for the Olympics in Rio was 2:45 for women.

Here are some of the extracted results for runners in Cork & Munster. It's impossible to pick out everyone as not everyone is a member of an athletics club. Let me know of any omissions.
